When I was 15 (many years ago) I had a water fight with my friend and her brother in their back garden.
It was a very Hot sunny day, the next day when |I woke up all my skin on my arms was swollen to such an extent that it was impossible to move them and very painful
My parents took me to hospital where i was told I had developed an allergy to the sun and in future I had to be very careful in the sun
I am now extra careful in the sun and in all the years since that first incident it has only happened one more time when I stupidly fell asleep in the garden, my skin was more swollen than the first time, I looked like Mr Blobby without the yellow spots
Never again!
